lownote Posted April 4, 2020 Share Posted April 4, 2020 (edited) 12 hours ago, pepsi-abi said: Hey! Yes i'd love to learn things like... Luther vandross - Never too much Lizzo - Juice Talking head songs like Psycho Killer Stevie Wonder - Do I Do, Sir duke etc Haircut 100 - Favourite Shirt Anything from Paul Simons Graceland Album I know some of these songs i wont be able to play until ive played for a while but these are the goals! Ah, now, you're talking! Bear in mind much of the bass of Paul Simon is by Baikithi Kumalo. Who plays unlined fretless bass. Which is not quite as hard as it sounds. Which would put you in a tiny very cool percentage of bassists, and can be acquired for just £199 new. The Revelation RPB-65 IMHO matches the Squier for build quality. And may be bought from Bass Gallery, the hippest bass store in London. There you go. Case solved. Next... [PS Revelation also do basses with stabilisers, or frets as they're called, if you still mean to go down that road. But if you can afford it, I would agree the Sire is the best all round solution] Edited April 4, 2020 by lownote12 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Al Krow Posted April 4, 2020 Share Posted April 4, 2020 (edited) 7 hours ago, pepsi-abi said: Ooooooffff the prices of the sadowsky lol! 😂 But for your extra £2,250 to £4,000 (new) over the cost of your Sire V7, which btw looks pretty much identical to a Sadowsky on a darkened stage - just quickly check body shape and headstock, you get this: AND most importantly these, which do look super cool and justify the price premium by themselves: But if you're not fussed about having nice knobs straight out of the box, you can stick with your Sire (at least for the next 23 years) and continue to buy milk for the next 6 months 😉 Edited April 4, 2020 by Al Krow 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ezbass Posted April 4, 2020 Share Posted April 4, 2020 (edited) Add one of those Sadowsky preamp pedals to the passive bass of your choice for some of Roger’s fairy dust, it’s what I do. They’re not cheap but they are really good. However, there are one of each size for sale within our community at a more affordable price.

pepsi-abi Posted April 4, 2020 Author Share Posted April 4, 2020 I’m assuming all these very expensive ones you are suggesting is a joke 😂 one certainly does not have that kind of money 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
